Viral is a public health podcast for both public health nerds and the general public hosted by Linsey Grove and Quinn Lundquist. Public health consists of too many topics and professionals to name–but we’re going to try to cover it all. From baby bottle tooth decay to social justice, we will discuss the historical context, cultural relevance, and current connections to each topic while interviewing our colleagues in the field. Welcome to Viral.

It's the poopisode! Take a seat, drop the kids off at the pool, and file your paperwork because we're talking about the history of waste management and public health hygiene efforts. We also talk with Mackenzie Tewell, a foodborne illness epidemiologist at the Arizona State Health Department, about her work in tracking outbreaks and interviewing people with diarrhea.

Viral is written and produced by Linsey Grove and Quinn Lundquist.

Our theme is “Take Your Medicine” by the Quick and Easy Boys.Visit us at www.viral-pod.com for more information.
